They're focusing on AI way too much. I want to be paying for good graphics rendering, not AI generated frames. They seem to be so hell bent on proving how amazing AI is when it comes to graphics, that it feels like they're intentionally making their framerate worse, just to show a larger difference between frame generation turned on, and frame generation turned off.

This might be true, but unfortunately for their competition their cards are still more performant and advanced than their competition even if you take fake frames out of the equation. (Ray tracing, NVIDIA reflex, etc.)

They designed the architecture to do AI first and graphics second. Then they have to come up with ways to overcome the focus on AI elements over raster to sell this as better graphics cards, so they are going to convince everyone raster is too hard to improve.

They want everyone believing they just had to waste space in GPU's built for gaming on more and more AI.

Considering Nvidia has been consistently improving raster faster than anybody else while at the same time also improving AI, this seems like a bit of a silly thing to say. It's not like AMD by ignoring AI for so long has been the one to have the fastest GPUs even just in raster to show for it. You would expect to see AMDs top cards beating Nvidias top cards in raster by the same degree that Nvidia cards are beating the AMD ones in path tracing if it was all this simple.
